COAL BREAKERS BURNED.
Rumors That Striking Miners Applied
the Torch.

SA1O ACiNiAs
WILKEsBARRE, PA, Nov. 19-Cox Bros.
& Co.'S No. 9 model breaker, near Hazelton,
was burned to the ground to-day. The loss
is $75, 900 and the insurance $50, 1000.
A breaker was also destroyed by fire this
morning at Delano. 1t belonged to the new
Buck Mountain Coal Company. The loss
on it is $4,000. 1t was partially insured
The burning of the two breakers caused
considerable excitement and rumors were
current that they had been set on fire by
the striking miners There were also
rumors that appeals had been sent to Gov.
Beaver for troops to protect mine property
No appeal, however, has been sent to the
Governor, and it is believed here and
throughout the mining districts that the
miners have had nothing whatever TO do
with the burning of the breakers.
Nothing definite can be ascertained as to
the origin of the fires Some of the opera
tors are of the opinion that the fires were
started by the striking miners, and an APP
plication to the Sheriff of the county for
deputies to protect mine property is said to
have been positively refused by the Sheriff.
There has been no trouble at the Buck
Mountain mine, and no strike there The
burning of Coke Bros a. Co.'s breaker, at
Drifton, is not attributed to
the miners. There is not yet
any cause for alarm but should the miners
in that region be evicted from the tenements
which they now occupy, serious trouble
may be expected. Leading miners here re-
gret the burning of these breakers, and say
the deed could not have been done by any
of the strikers or any one having the in
terests OF the collieries at heart.
FLOUR MILLS BURNED.
FORT ScoTT, KAN, Nov. l9.-The Good

aged $50, 900 The fire was caused by oil
which leaked from tank on the railroad
switch in the rear of the mills into the en-
gine room and under the firebox. A fierce
wind was blowing at the time, and for a
while there was great excitement Assist
ance was telegraphed for to Kansas City

troll before either city could respond.

GREVY WILL NOT RESIGN.
HIS CABINET, HOWEVER, STEPS
OCT OF OFFICE.

The Chamber of Deputies Adopts a
Motion to Question the Government
on It's Domestic Policy in Spite of
the Ministrys Opposition-Clemen-
ceau Made the Motion.
PARIS, Nov. 19.--The Journal deS Debdts
says that the fixed intention of President
Grevy is not to resign. He does not admit
that parliamentary pressure can enforce a
Presidents resignation. Such a state of
things, he holds, would be subversive of the
constitution. His resignation would create
mischievous precedent, as his successors
would thereby be bound to resign every
time public opinion was against them. 1t
is believed that only NJ. Gramnon, late
Prefect Of Police, and NJ. Wilson are i'm
plicated in the letter scandal.
Soon after the Chamber of Deputies met
today the Extreme Left moved interpella-
ton of the government on the question of
its domestic policy.
A motion was made by the Ministry to
postpone the debate. The motion was re-
jected by vote of 32S to 242.
THE CABINET RESIGNS.
Prime Minister Rouvier Immediately an
nounced the resignation of the Cabinet.
The motion for the Interpolation of the
government was made by NJ. Clemenceau.
Premier Rouvier demanded that the debate
on the subject be adjourned until Nov. "a,
in the interest of the measure for the con-
version of the public debt M. Clemenceau
said it was a singular method of reassuring
the holders of public funds to tell them that
they could live in peace until Nov. "a, and
to promise that there would then be crisis
such as had never before occurred.
The public, he declared, had too long awaited
an explanation. There was practically no
government The Ministry was not in con-
dition to guide the republican policy. Par
lament was abandoned to the direction of
the Right. The law officers of the State and
police were in conflict and the administra-
tive disorder was complete.
The division on the governments proposal
to adjourn the debate was taken at the con
clusion of NJ. Clemenceaus speech. Upon
the announcement of the result of the vote
the Chamber adjourned until Monday amid
great excitement.
Subsequent to the adjournment of the
Chamber of Deputies the Ministers held a
the Palace of the Elysees and placed their
resignation in the hands of President Grevy.
RoUVIER's KEEN SARCASM.
NJ. Rouvier, upon leaving the Chamber OF
Deputies, accosted NJ. Clemenceau, and said
"You have relieved me of a troublesome
burden | have now to advise President
Grevy to send for you to form Ministry. y
M. Goblet declared in the lobby of the
chamber that he would not undertake to
form Cabinet.
Among those who voted with the majority
OIL the motion TO adjourn the debate were
1859 Republicans and las Conservatives.
The minority included 221 Republicans and
| Z Conservatives. President Grevy accepted
the designations of his Ministers at the
Elysees.
